Camp Pines Wood Brush Cutting Stewardship

Get your daily exercise and contribute to bird habitat improvement at this CAS restoration project. We are cutting invasive brush to create more open space in the woodland area. We will provide tools, gloves and snacks.

Dress for some moderate work; wear sturdy shoes or boots and old clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or torn.

Meet at the farthest parking lot at Camp Pine Woods Forest Preserve on Euclid/Lake Avenue between Des Plaines and Glenview, just east of the Des Plaines River.

Enter on the south side of Lake Avenue, eastbound ONLY from Des Plaines River Rd. (there’s no left turn westbound on Lake). Contact: Laurel Ross (lross@fieldmuseum.org).
